The Brightside: Predictions for the Hot Stove and other Notes

Sometimes I dream of hitting the powerball lottery. I would go to Flushing with a briefcase of money, and saying "I'd like to speak to the ownership, I have a briefcase that has millions of dollars in it, and I'd like to buy a share of the team...

Money Well Spent? or Wasted?

Along with this, much of the walls dimensions will be coming in, other topics were mentioned. He said Ike Davis will be ready for Spring Training,

Alderson said Daniel Murphy, who tore the medial collateral ligament in
his left knee in August, would also be ready for spring training, and
that he expected Murphy would continue to be a “jack of all trades,”
rather than be locked into one position.

I think this would be a bad idea. While Murphy is a Professional Hitter, I think he needs one position in the field, and hopefully if we don't get constantly injured, they might be able to have him focus on one position. May the Murphy With You.

These are my top 3 Hot Stove Predictions.

1. Reyes will be signed before the Winter Meetings. I'm not saying we will sign him, but I do not think we will get to the winter meetings without him being signed by a team.

2. Prince Fielder will stay in Milwaukee. My gut tells me that he will stay with the team that brought him up, they are coming together well and gelling as a unit, so I can see him sticking around and giving them a bit of a home town discount.

3. Albert Pujols will be the last "Big Name" Free agent signed. Unless St. Louis overwhelms him with an offer, I think he will take a good long look at if he wants to try to repeat as champion as a Cardinal, or go elsewhere for more money.
